Heynckes_Clemence_Final_730
Although Bayern's manager Jupp Heynckes has enjoyed much success throughout his footballing career, winning the 1972 European Championship and 1974 World Cup as a player with West Germany, and the 1998 Champions League as manager of Real Madrid (if he is successful on Saturday he will join Ernst Happel, Ottmar Hitzfield and Jose Mourinho in a select group of managers who have won the European Cup with different clubs) his record against English teams in European finals is not a happy one.

Forest_Flags_Final_800528
Forest fans wave their flags at the Santiago Bernabéu Stadium in Madrid during the 1980 European Cup Final. Forest remarkably defended the trophy, defeating Hamburg 1-0 through a 21st minute John Robertson goal. It meant that Forest were the first club to have won more European Cups than domestic league titles.
